This is probably very true. I don't see it happening anytime soon. I'm sure it will happen someday. Maybe when they have an developed graphene or some other future material to the level where they can make watch bezels out of it, the ceramic might pass down to the SS.
I hope I am wrong however.
I would love to see a SLIGHTLY larger Daytona anyway but don't think that will ever happen either..

I Don't mind the ceramic vs steel bezel. But I do like the look and feel of the larger daytona lugs.

Yes, I do think it is probably a long way off, however as they have still not put ceramic on the WG it is still a possibility unlike the BLRO and SS. And if they were to put a £2-3K premium on it over the non-ceramic I still think it would sell very well and waiting lists would not be quite so astronomical!

I don't like the Milgaus so I would flip it for a Daytona.

Don't do it. You already have watch with a date on it. I find Daytona very hard to read, and, are you ever going to time something to that accuracy? Also, for some reason, I'm seeing more moms at school wearing Daytonas.

Personally - I'd keep the Milgauss and add a Daytona later. There's something special about the Milgauss - and its awesome in a rotation.

You already thinking about it.......so do it......but don't rush. You might be better off selling your watch than trading it.
Also, don't worry about this particular Daytona that you wanna get. Plenty out there. Once you have the cash you can negociate better.

Personally I would flip. I have a Daytona, so I am a bit biased, but I am not a fan of the Miligauss (even though I am a physicist and work with magnetism).
